Frozen Mouse and Empty Paws
There was a mouse wanting out of the cold
Scurried up the lead pipe wrapped up in old
Blankets. Feeling safe and warm
Fell asleep whilst the ice storm
Came. Blankets pilled, among ice cube mold.
Out in the yard the frozen mouse was thrown.
Cat meowed, goody a mouse all my own.
Sun came out and thawed the mouse,
Lickety split in the house.
Dumbfound meow empty paws left alone.
